Just an Average Joe...

Or something like that. Basically since Halo 2 came out, I hadn't touched Halo: Combat Evolved... I sold my copy, and began to indulge myself in the greatness that was Halo 2.

But I always knew I would some day retrace my steps, and decide to play through the entire campaign, run through multiplayer levels with my friends, or brothers... simply to enjoy the nostalgia, and classic gameplay that made me into the gamer I am today.

So finally, yesterday I went out and purchased Halo: Combated Evolved. For the second time. =D (Never done that with a game before...)

I am absolutely flabbergasted at how fun this game STILL is. And how intimidating the Elites are... I've only reached about half way through the second level... And every corner sparks a fond memory of the game I once spent countless hours on before, including in campaign. Not just multiplayer.

Anyway, I thought I'd just come and share my heart-warming experiences with everyone else who creeps the old, slowly dwindling forum. XD

Cheers.

Oh most definitely. After i made the mistake of trading in Halo CE years back i bought it on xbox originals. I've had ridiculous amounts of fun on legendary. Currently working on AOTCR. ;) Lots of nostalgia, hope you enjoy !

Noobs can't handle AR/Pistol Spawns.

I still play Halo PC here and there. Its the best Campaign out of the series. Second best Multilayer to Halo 3s.

It's fun to play campaign, but I'm an only child and my friends and I don't play video games when we're hanging at my place so multiplayer just isn't an option for me,

Yeah, I own all three and I keep my Xbox next to my 360 just in case I get the urge to pop in some Halo CE. In fact, I think I'll do that today. I'm in need of some CE.
Glad to hear about it! It truly is a great feeling, isn't it?

Uh...

I bought it just after I bought Halo 2 (maybe 2 or 3 weeks after getting Halo 2, along with my Xbox). I literally let my Halo 2 box sit there, the plastic case not even open, until I had played through Halo: Combat Evolved (It was an excruciating 3 weeks I must say).
I think I got my original Xbox in about early December, maybe late November, 2005.
Man, sometimes I still look back at that last level and wish I was playing it, I'm just too lazy to put in my 360's disk tray.

What a waste....

I got my Xbox in... 04-05? Can't remember. After a few months, I got CE, the books, and finally, Halo 3 and halo wars.
